Constitution Hill falls but remains unharmed at Cheltenham

Constitution Hill, the favorite, suffered a heavy fall during the Champion Hurdle at the 2025 Cheltenham Festival but walked away unharmed.

Both horses and jockeys involved in the falls were confirmed to be fine by the British Horseracing Authority. Trainers expressed relief that all participants were safe. They noted the unusual nature of two champions falling in the same race and acknowledged the excitement surrounding Golden Ace's victory.
